Top 20 celebrity retirement hot spots

Tina Turner obviously thinks this part of France is simply the best. She has a

beautiful train line) given its proximity to brasher hot spots, including
Nice and Monaco. A two-bedroom apartment here would be £500,000. Most
properties are period ones, but many have been split into apartments or two
houses. A few have been modernised.
